Colorado’s Lindsey Vonn may be out of the athletic competition at the Sochi Olympics, and she won’t travel there, but she’ll be part of the coverage, serving as a correspondent for “Today” and NBC Sports.

NBC announced Monday that Vonn “will report daily from the U.S. for TODAY, and she will contribute to NBC Sports Olympic coverage. As the Games unfold, Vonn will share her unique perspective on the events and the competition from an Olympian’s point of view.” She’ll begin Tuesday Jan. 28 in New York, giving “Today” her first interview since she withdrew from the Games due to an injury, giving an update on her condition, training and rehabilitation.

NBC also will use Vonn as a social media draw, doing a Q&A on Facebook in real time at Facebook.com/NBCOlympics. “The timing of this Facebook chat will be announced at a later date.”
